Clinical modellers,

I'm trying to work out the latest design of Lab archetypes. A Lab result seems to now be a structure like the following:

 * openEHR-EHR-*OBSERVATION*.*laboratory_test_result*
     o + at0097|Test findings|:
       openEHR-EHR-*CLUSTER*.*laboratory_test_panel* [*]
         + +at0002 |Laboratory Result|: *CLUSTER* [*]
             # +at0004 |Reference range guidance|
             # +at0005 |Result status|
# +at0014 |Result Detail|: [open slot] - ? openEHR-EHR-*CLUSTER*.*laboratory_test_analyte* [*]
                 * +at0001 |Analyte Result|: *DATA_VALUE*
                 * +at0003 |Comment|: *DV_TEXT*
                 * etc

Questions

 * is this a correct understanding of the current design?
 * where would the LOINC code for each analyte go?
 * we could build some common test panels by specialising the test
   analyte archetype into things like TSH, TS4, etc and lab test panel
   into 'thyroid test'  - is anyone doing this?
 * how does AQL querying work if LOINC is not in use / not available?

It would be good if there was a design page on this e.g. in the openEHR wiki.

thanks

- thomas
